Property Description

Tucked away in the heart of Downers Grove, this charming home rests on a peaceful, one-block street with light traffic. Its inviting curb appeal, framed by classic architecture, sets a warm and welcoming tone. Large windows throughout flood the space with natural light, casting a soft glow across the beautifully renovated interior and exterior. Step onto the spacious front porch, crafted with durable Hardie board siding, or unwind in the private newly designed backyard patio, newly fenced backyard, perfect for quiet evenings. Inside, the home exudes character with gleaming hardwood floors, a rebuilt fireplace and newer mantle, newly remodeled 2nd floor bathroom and a fully finished waterproofed lower level with a modern full bath and washer and dryer. Designed for today's lifestyle, the custom kitchen shines with stainless steel appliances, a new refrigerator, new dishwasher, smooth granite countertops, a cozy breakfast bar, and a generous dining area ideal for gatherings. Perfectly positioned, the home is just one block from Washington Park and four blocks from the Metra, vibrant downtown Downers Grove, and an array of restaurants. This is a rare chance to own a move-in-ready home where timeless charm meets modern convenience.
